Question: Why did the three boys pay Drillbit to protect them from Filkins, and not from Ron also?
Answer: They didn't know Ron's name yet.
Question: Does anyone know what song the kid sang when he came out from behind the tree on Drillbit's date? I feel like I should know the song, but I don't.
Answer: It's "Hero" originally recorded by Enrique Iglesias but preformed in the movie by Adam Ho.
Answer: They probably thought that Filkins was a bigger threat.
